Leak detection and regassing in Exeter
If an older system in your Exeter home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. In the South West, a system that heats well through damp winters is often as valuable as summer cooling.
If a system in Exeter has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Our Devon coverage takes in Exeter, about 36 miles from Plymouth. That includes the EX2 postcode district.

Regulations and records
Any work on the refrigerant circuit in Exeter, from regassing to removal, must be done by F-gas certified engineers, with records kept.
The visit
We agree the visit price before we come. On the day the engineer checks the system, carries out the agreed work and talks you through anything they find. Before booking, tell us the make and model and what the system is doing. We confirm the visit price, then the engineer arrives with the right equipment and, where possible, the right parts.
